John 7

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 After this, Jesus went around in Galilee. He stayed away from Judea on purpose. He knew that the Jews there were waiting to kill him.

2 The Jewish Feast of Booths was near.

3 Jesus' brothers said to him, "You should leave here and go to Judea. Then your disciples will see the kinds of things you do.

4 No one who wants to be well known does things in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world."

5 Even Jesus' own brothers did not believe in him.

6 So Jesus told them, "The right time has not yet come for me. For you, any time is right.

7 The people of the world can't hate you. But they hate me. This is because I give witness that what they do is evil.

8 "You go to the Feast. I am not yet going up to this Feast. For me, the right time has not yet come."

9 After he said this, he stayed in Galilee.

10 When his brothers had left for the Feast, he went also. But he went secretly, not openly.

11 At the Feast the Jews were watching for him. They were asking, "Where is he?"

12 Many people in the crowd were whispering about him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others replied, "No. He fools the people."

13 But no one would say anything about him openly. They were afraid of the Jews.

14 Jesus did nothing until halfway through the Feast. Then he went up to the temple courtyard and began to teach.

15 The Jews were amazed. They asked, "How did this man learn so much without studying?"

16 Jesus answered, "What I teach is not my own. It comes from the One who sent me.

17 Anyone who chooses to do what God wants him to do will find out whether my teaching comes from God or from me.

18 Someone who speaks on his own does it to get honor for himself. But someone who works for the honor of the One who sent him is truthful. There is nothing false about him.

19 "Didn't Moses give you the law? But not one of you keeps the law. Why are you trying to kill me?"

20 "You are controlled by demons," the crowd answered. "Who is trying to kill you?"

21 Jesus said to them, "I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.

22 Moses gave you circumcision, and so you circumcise a child on the Sabbath day. But circumcision did not really come from Moses. It came from Abraham.

23 You circumcise a child on the Sabbath day. You think that if you do, you won't break the law of Moses. Then why are you angry with me? I healed a whole man on the Sabbath!

24 "Stop judging only by what you see. Judge correctly."

25 Then some of the people of Jerusalem began asking questions. They said, "Isn't this the man some people are trying to kill?

26 Here he is! He is speaking openly. They aren't saying a word to him. Have the authorities really decided that he is the Christ?

27 But we know where this man is from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where he is from."

28 Jesus was still teaching in the temple courtyard. He cried out, "Yes, you know me. And you know where I am from. I am not here on my own. The One who sent me is true. You do not know him.

29 But I know him. I am from him, and he sent me."

30 When he said this, they tried to arrest him. But no one laid a hand on him. His time had not yet come.

31 Still, many people in the crowd put their faith in him. They said, "How will it be when the Christ comes? Will he do more miraculous signs than this man?"

32 The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering things like this about him. Then the chief priests and the Pharisees sent temple guards to arrest him.

33 Jesus said, "I am with you for only a short time. Then I will go to the One who sent me.

34 You will look for me, but you won't find me. You can't come where I am going."

35 The Jews said to one another, "Where does this man plan to go? Does he think we can't find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks? Will he go there to teach the Greeks?

36 What did he mean when he said, 'You will look for me, but you won't find me'? And, 'You can't come where I am going'?"

37 It was the last and most important day of the Feast. Jesus stood up and spoke in a loud voice. He said, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.

38 Does anyone believe in me? Then, just as Scripture says, streams of living water will flow from inside him."

39 When he said this, he meant the Holy Spirit. Those who believed in Jesus would receive the Spirit later. Up to that time, the Spirit had not been given. This was because Jesus had not yet received glory.

40 When some of the people heard his words, they said, "This man must be the Prophet we've been expecting."

41 Others said, "He is the Christ." Still others asked, "How can the Christ come from Galilee?

42 Doesn't Scripture say that the Christ will come from David's family? Doesn't it say that he will come from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?"

43 So the people did not agree about who Jesus was.

44 Some wanted to arrest him. But no one laid a hand on him.

45 Finally the temple guards went back to the chief priests and the Pharisees. They asked the guards, "Why didn't you bring him in?"

46 "No one ever spoke the way this man does," the guards replied.

47 "You mean he has fooled you also?" the Pharisees asked.

48 "Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in him?

49 No! But this mob knows nothing about the law. There is a curse on them."

50 Then Nicodemus, a Pharisee, spoke. He was the one who had gone to Jesus earlier. He asked,

51 "Does our law find someone guilty without hearing him first? Doesn't it want to find out what he is doing?"

52 They replied, "Are you from Galilee too? Look into it. You will find that a prophet does not come out of Galilee."

53 Then each of them went home.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 post haec ambulabat Iesus in Galilaeam non enim volebat in Iudaeam ambulare quia quaerebant eum Iudaei interficere

2 erat autem in proximo dies festus Iudaeorum scenopegia

3 dixerunt autem ad eum fratres eius transi hinc et vade in Iudaeam ut et discipuli tui videant opera tua quae facis

4 nemo quippe in occulto quid facit et quaerit ipse in palam esse si haec facis manifesta te ipsum mundo

5 neque enim fratres eius credebant in eum

6 dicit ergo eis Iesus tempus meum nondum advenit tempus autem vestrum semper est paratum

7 non potest mundus odisse vos me autem odit quia ego testimonium perhibeo de illo quia opera eius mala sunt

8 vos ascendite ad diem festum hunc ego non ascendo ad diem festum istum quia meum tempus nondum impletum est

9 haec cum dixisset ipse mansit in Galilaea

10 ut autem ascenderunt fratres eius tunc et ipse ascendit ad diem festum non manifeste sed quasi in occulto

11 Iudaei ergo quaerebant eum in die festo et dicebant ubi est ille

12 et murmur multus de eo erat in turba; quidam enim dicebant quia bonus est alii autem dicebant non sed seducit turbas

13 nemo tamen palam loquebatur de illo propter metum Iudaeorum

14 iam autem die festo mediante ascendit Iesus in templum et docebat

15 et mirabantur Iudaei dicentes quomodo hic litteras scit cum non didicerit

16 respondit eis Iesus et dixit mea doctrina non est mea sed eius qui misit me

17 si quis voluerit voluntatem eius facere cognoscet de doctrina utrum ex Deo sit an ego a me ipso loquar

18 qui a semet ipso loquitur gloriam propriam quaerit qui autem quaerit gloriam eius qui misit illum hic verax est et iniustitia in illo non est

19 nonne Moses dedit vobis legem et nemo ex vobis facit legem

20 quid me quaeritis interficere respondit turba et dixit daemonium habes quis te quaerit interficere

21 respondit Iesus et dixit eis unum opus feci et omnes miramini

22 propterea Moses dedit vobis circumcisionem non quia ex Mose est sed ex patribus et in sabbato circumciditis hominem

23 si circumcisionem accipit homo in sabbato ut non solvatur lex Mosi mihi indignamini quia totum hominem sanum feci in sabbato

24 nolite iudicare secundum faciem sed iustum iudicium iudicate

25 dicebant ergo quidam ex Hierosolymis nonne hic est quem quaerunt interficere

26 et ecce palam loquitur et nihil ei dicunt numquid vere cognoverunt principes quia hic est Christus

27 sed hunc scimus unde sit Christus autem cum venerit nemo scit unde sit

28 clamabat ergo docens in templo Iesus et dicens et me scitis et unde sim scitis et a me ipso non veni sed est verus qui misit me quem vos non scitis

29 ego scio eum quia ab ipso sum et ipse me misit

30 quaerebant ergo eum adprehendere et nemo misit in illum manus quia nondum venerat hora eius

31 de turba autem multi crediderunt in eum et dicebant Christus cum venerit numquid plura signa faciet quam quae hic facit

32 audierunt Pharisaei turbam murmurantem de illo haec et miserunt principes et Pharisaei ministros ut adprehenderent eum

33 dixit ergo Iesus adhuc modicum tempus vobiscum sum et vado ad eum qui misit me

34 quaeretis me et non invenietis et ubi sum ego vos non potestis venire

35 dixerunt ergo Iudaei ad se ipsos quo hic iturus est quia non inveniemus eum numquid in dispersionem gentium iturus est et docturus gentes

36 quis est hic sermo quem dixit quaeretis me et non invenietis et ubi sum ego non potestis venire

37 in novissimo autem die magno festivitatis stabat Iesus et clamabat dicens si quis sitit veniat ad me et bibat

38 qui credit in me sicut dixit scriptura flumina de ventre eius fluent aquae vivae

39 hoc autem dixit de Spiritu quem accepturi erant credentes in eum non enim erat Spiritus quia Iesus nondum fuerat glorificatus

40 ex illa ergo turba cum audissent hos sermones eius dicebant hic est vere propheta

41 alii dicebant hic est Christus quidam autem dicebant numquid a Galilaea Christus venit

42 nonne scriptura dicit quia ex semine David et Bethleem castello ubi erat David venit Christus

43 dissensio itaque facta est in turba propter eum

44 quidam autem ex ipsis volebant adprehendere eum sed nemo misit super illum manus

45 venerunt ergo ministri ad pontifices et Pharisaeos et dixerunt eis illi quare non adduxistis eum

46 responderunt ministri numquam sic locutus est homo sicut hic homo

47 responderunt ergo eis Pharisaei numquid et vos seducti estis

48 numquid aliquis ex principibus credidit in eum aut ex Pharisaeis

49 sed turba haec quae non novit legem maledicti sunt

50 dicit Nicodemus ad eos ille qui venit ad eum nocte qui unus erat ex ipsis

51 numquid lex nostra iudicat hominem nisi audierit ab ipso prius et cognoverit quid faciat

52 responderunt et dixerunt ei numquid et tu Galilaeus es scrutare et vide quia propheta a Galilaea non surgit

53 et reversi sunt unusquisque in domum suam
